1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains the leading cause of death from an infectious disease worldwide. TB therapy is complicated by the protracted treatment regimens, development of resistance coupled with toxicity and insufficient sterilizing capacity of current drugs. Although considerable progress has been made on establishing a TB drug pipeline, the high attrition rate reinforces the need to continually replenish the pipeline with high-quality leads that act through inhibition of novel targets. In this review, we highlight some of the key advances that have assisted TB drug discovery with novel chemical matter, targets and strategies - to fuel the TB drug pipeline.
